It is an almost impossible task to catalogue a fully comprehensive Bob Marley discography. What follows is an attempt to do so.
I know of certain omissions e.g. the 'bootleg' (?) live concert CD's put out in the main by Japanese and Italian companies. I've left them out because I'm not entirely clear on the question of legality! But generally they cover Bobs world tours and include performances in Jamaiaca, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Africa, various U.S. cities. The quality is usually very good.
There are other omissions I'm sure. But what follows at least serves to show how prolific a songwriter Bob Marley was.
I've listed the recordings firstly by label, and then chronologically.
